Twitter Commentators React Indignantly To Ted Wells Report

The NFL on Friday released the findings of Ted Wells' investigation into alleged abuse in the Dolphins' locker room, finding that G Richie Incognito, G John Jerry and C Mike Pouncey "engaged in a pattern of harassment directed" at T Jonathan Martin, another unnamed offensive lineman and an assistant trainer (Mult., 2/14). Read the full report.

Twitter reaction to the report was damning of Incognito, the Dolphins organization, and at times the league itself. SI's Seth Davis: "This report is a total disaster for Incognito and the Dolphins. Literally a worst case scenario." The S.F. Chronicle's Ann Killion: "Re report on Dolphins mess: welcome to the NFL Michael Sam." The Nation's Dave Zirin: "Ted Wells' Incognito/Dolphins report protects those in power, Abu Ghraib style." N.Y. Post's Bart Hubbuch: "The Dolphins' locker room sounds like it was a truly awful place." Former NFLer Chris Kluwe: "Interesting how in the Martin/Incognito report a persistent theme of 'I'm afraid this will cost me my job' comes from the witnesses."
